Chapter 1,195 Changing flags
Xun Yu couldn't help but frown, his eyes full of thinking. He already understood what Ju Shou was going to say.
What Jushou means is that the most dangerous careerists will not jump out easily even if you give them a huge opportunity. Unless China is really in trouble, they will jump out and give themselves the most fatal blow.
"You can't explain it clearly. If we can't get rid of those careerists this time, then why bother to go to such great lengths to clean up the world?
As you said, the world's heart is now toward China. Except for Jingzhou, there are no rebellions elsewhere. This can explain the problem.
Even if there are careerists among them, they are only a minority, and most of them still hold a neutral attitude. Although such people may have no merit, they have no fault. There is no need to give them a chance to jump out.
Moreover, now that the world has been settled, as you said, the problem may only occur in these four states, but these four states are also Chinese territory and Chinese people, and your Majesty is definitely not willing to suffer the pain of war again here."
Jushu knew that Xun Yu was extremely intelligent, but there were some things that needed to be said. Since the task of eradicating evil had been exhausted but the evil could not be eradicated, was it necessary to start a new storm?
Those who take the initiative to jump out may have to be killed, but those neutral parties cannot push them to oppose themselves. China Xinli cannot experience big waves anymore.
"It was Xun Yu who didn't think carefully. As the note says, careerists are called careerists because they have deep thoughts. For example, heroes like Cao Cao and Cao Mengde,
As long as they make up their minds, they won't jump out until the last moment. What I do will only make those who love China waver, and may eventually be pushed to the opposite side."
Since Xun Yu had figured it out and had nothing to say, he should boldly admit his mistakes when he should.
"Actually, I also think your strategy is a bit radical. Although China is ours now, it actually belongs to the people of the world.
No one should put themselves on the opposite side of the people at any time, and must unite all forces that can be united, do you understand?"
Since Xun Yu already knew the shortcomings of his strategy, Yuan Shu also nodded, and then said the wise words of later generations: the people are the masters of the world, and anyone who stands against the people will not end well.
"Your Majesty, it's better not to say such things."
Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Jushu couldn't help but frown. Although he knew that what Yuan Shu said was very reasonable, he couldn't spread these words.
After all, the emperor calls himself the Son of Heaven and patrols the sky on behalf of the heavens. All things in the world belong to the Son of Heaven.
What all the dynasties have to do is to fool the people and make the people of the world meekly accept the rule of the imperial court.
"Okay, I understand. I can't say anything, but I can't help but explain the truth. As the saying goes: the king is a boat, and the common people are water; water can carry the boat and also capsize it. Don't forget this.
, when we really reach the point where we are on the opposite side of the people, this country will be finished."
Yuan Shu naturally knew what Ju Shou meant, but he didn't have to say it, but he had to make the truth clear. He wanted all civil and military officials to always remember that their foundation was the people, and they could not stand against the people.
"I will remember your Majesty's teachings."
"I will remember your Majesty's teachings."
"I will remember your Majesty's teachings."
When the five people heard Yuan Shu's words, they couldn't help but look at each other, and then saluted Yuan Shu together.
"Okay, then stand down. The key now is to urge Ji Ling's newly established Wing Tiger Army to accelerate its formation."
"promise."
When Cao Cao returned to his mansion, Xi Zhicai greeted him directly.
"Lord."
"Let's talk after we get inside."
Cao Cao glanced at Xi Zhicai and took him directly into the house.
"You have heard everything that happened in the court."
Cao Cao sat at the top of the table and looked at Xi Zhicai in front of him. He knew that the other party was definitely going to ask this question.
"Lord, do you think there's something fishy here?"
Xi Zhicai glanced at Cao Cao, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
"There must be some tricks, but I think Yuan Shu and the others didn't know about Xun Yu's proposal today. Otherwise, they wouldn't have made a long-term decision, but would have made a decision on the spot."
Although Cao Cao also saw that there must be something fishy in this, Yuan Shu probably didn't know why Xun Yu proposed such a strategy, otherwise there would not have been any arguments in the court.
"Then my lord, do you think this plan can be implemented?"
Xi Zhicai himself was also thinking about whether Xun Yu's strategy had advantages or disadvantages, but he finally came to the conclusion that it had both advantages and disadvantages, which also made him confused.
"If it were me, I might adopt Xun Yu's strategy and relax the conditions now to see who is a human and who is a ghost. In the worst case, I would start over from scratch and sweep the world over. But I don't think Yuan Shu has such courage."
Cao Cao thought for a moment and came to this conclusion.
"Yuan Shu is a man who is as talented as my lord. If you dare to give it a try, why doesn't he dare to give it a try?"
Xi Zhicai was also stunned at this time. In his opinion, Yuan Shu was not inferior to Cao Cao. If you, Cao Cao, and Cao Mengde have the courage to start over from scratch, why wouldn't others dare?
"Haha, he is the first emperor of the Chinese Empire. I am just a minister of the Ministry of Justice now, so I dare to fight, but he does not dare to fight. Your status determines your courage. It doesn't matter if I lose, but if he loses, he will lose the great country of the Chinese Empire.
,do you understand?"
Cao Cao did not hide anything and directly expressed his thoughts. I am afraid that people who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, so he decided that he dared to fight and Yuan Shu did not dare to fight.
"That's it, I understand."
Only then did Xi Zhi finally understand why he could only be a counselor, while Cao Cao was the lord. His overall view of the situation alone was not something he could match.
"Okay, let's not say so much. I tell everyone to stay well with me. No matter what rumors appear outside, remember that they are just ordinary Chinese people. They must not cause any trouble. Do you understand?"
Cao Cao nodded, and at the same time told Xi Zhicai that now is a very important period, and he must not show his flaws, otherwise everything will be over by then.
"No, I understand."
In this way, Xun Yu's plan was shelved and no one mentioned it again, and the establishment of the Winged Tiger Army began directly.
Ji Ling had long since recovered from his injuries, but the Tiger Army was led by Tai Shici and he did not go there. Now he just accepted Yuan Shu's order and took two thousand guards to Changshan County to train this new army of thirty thousand people.
Although it is said to be a new army, the Winged Tiger Army is basically composed of militia groups from various places. These militia groups are also well-trained troops, with the Guards as the backbone. I believe it will not take long for the Winged Tiger Army to be reorganized and transformed into
Become a powerful force.
The disaster in Jingzhou became more and more serious. As Liu Biao's banner of the New Han Dynasty resounded throughout the world, more and more Han survivors began to gather in Jingzhou to strengthen Liu Biao's resistance.
"Captain, Zhou Duo is asking for an audience outside the navy's stronghold."
Just when Cai Mao was comforting the navy, Zhou Duo had arrived from Xiangyang City again.
"He's finally here, let him in."
Hearing that Zhou Duo was here, Cai Mao finally relaxed his anxiety over the past few days. If you, old boy, don't come here again, he might really be unable to bear it anymore.
"promise."
Soon Zhou Duo, dressed in black robe, was taken to Cai Mao's house.
"Sir, Zhou Duo is polite."
Zhou Duocheng saluted Cai Mao with clasped fists.
"What's wrong?
What happened?"
Cai Hao glanced at Zhou Duo and spoke to him knowingly.
"My lord, aren't you asking this question knowingly?
Is it time to fulfill what you promised last time?
At this time, the situation in Jingzhou was very good. The reason why there was no large-scale war in Nanjun was actually to give the governor an opportunity.
I believe that as long as the governor raises his arms and gives a shout-out, the civil and military forces of Nanjun will be happy to return to Xiangyang's command."
Zhou Duo was stunned when he heard Cai Mao's words. Have you forgotten what you promised yourself before?
"Now that we've reached this point, I will do it, Cai Xing."
Now that the other party had said it, Cai Mao stopped hiding it and directly called his personal guards.
"exist."
Cai Xing saluted Cai Mao directly.
"Assemble all the guards and hide around, and then summon all the captains to come to my place to discuss matters."
Since everything that should be expected has been waited for, Cai Hao did not hesitate and started to implement his plan directly.
"promise."
Cai Xing left directly, and within a short time many personal guards were hiding around the Governor's Mansion, while captains of the navy also came one after another without knowing what was going on.
Cai Mao was at the top of the list, looking at the ten navy captains who had gathered, a gleam flashed in his eyes.
"Captain."
"Captain."
"Captain."
The ten people gathered their fists together and saluted Cai Mao.
"Do you know why I called you here?"
"have no idea."
The ten captains looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.
"Okay, now you also know the situation in Jingzhou. Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng are my old ministers and a clan member of the Han Dynasty. Now he holds high the banner of righteousness and establishes the new Han Dynasty.
After all, we were born to inherit the Han Dynasty, and now is the time to support the Han Dynasty, so I decided to change my flag and join the new Han Dynasty. What do you think?"
Cai Hao directly expressed his thoughts.
"Captain?
Do you want to betray His Majesty?"
"I disagree."
"That is, China treats us well and I will not betray you."
When the ten captains heard Cai Mao's words, they became angry and stared at Cai Mao fiercely, as if they wanted to eat him.
"No one agrees?"
After hearing the words of the captains, Cai Mao smiled slightly. It seemed that he was right. These people were all loyal ministers and good generals of China.
"Sir, I advise you not to make a mistake. Jingzhou is just a clown and will be destroyed by the empire sooner or later."
"If you don't wake up in time, don't blame me for waiting."
"Sir, don't force us."
This time the ten captains were even more extreme. They all pulled out the steel knives from their waists. If Cai Mao continued, these people would definitely step forward and capture him.
"Haha, if you dare to draw your sword against me, I will take down all those who come."
